Les Misérables, affectionally known as Les Mis, is the stage adaptation of Victor Hugo’s 1862 novel of the same name. The sung-through musical was originally written in French by Claude-Michel Schönberg, Alain Boubil and Jean-Marc Natel and staged in 1980. After a short run in Paris, Cameron Mackintosh heard the soundtrack and decided to produce an English-language version for a British audience. Working with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Mackintosh’s Misérables opened in 1985 with new lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer. The legendary show about ex-convict Jean Valjean and his rival, policeman Javert, received mixed reviews from critics but blew audiences away. The initial two month run at the Barbican Centre was a sell-out, guaranteeing a place on the West End at the Palace Theatre where it ran from 1985 to 2004. It then moved to Queen’s Theatre where it still runs today, although it the theatre was refurbished and renamed The Sondheim Theatre in 2019. This makes it the longest-running musical in the world. Les Misérables has had three runs on Broadway – one of which earned it eight Tony Awards – and has toured the world. Les Mis is a cultural phenomenon that can’t be avoided. And for good reason. The grand score is often covered, both by artists such as Katherine Jenkins and Susan Boyle – famed for auditioning with “I Dreamed A Dream” on Britain’s Got Talent – and parodied in comedies such as Forbidden Broadway and Netflix’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. It was adapted into a film in 2012 which starred Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Sacha Baron Cohen. It received eight Academy Award nominations and won three. Les Misérables is a timeless musical which is still thrilling audiences' night after night – it’s even won the critics over.
